We look at the teams commitment to their business venture and your ability to instill confidence in future investors, employees, and potential customers. Also, the credibility of your team is essential since we will be working together as a team. Rouge Investments looks for solutions that address major problems for relatively large target markets. Your company must have a significant claim share of this market.

These figures clarify the temperature of three cities basically belong to 15-20°C, which is suitable for people outside activities. Furthermore, Disney should select this kind of weather when they want to access to a new market.

...Criteria for Happiness
This article entitled “Criteria for Happiness in Nicomachean Ethics and X 6-8 “ , it foundation is based on Aristotle’s’ criteria for what is to count as human happiness. According to Aristotle happiness for a man is self-sufficient, complete without qualification, peculiar to humans, excellent and best and most complete. The ethical issues that are present in this article is the comparison between the I 7 and the X 6-8 . I 7 criteria implies that there is only one activity which is happiness and one happy life whereas X 8-6 there are two happy lives and therefore two activities which meet the criteria of happiness.
The ethical alternatives include where Aristotle retains the CA version of the peculiarity criterion while changing his view of human nature , which means that when a person is his or he nous then contemplation exercises the only human ability. Another alternative is that self sufficiency does mean ‘ that which is sufficient for a man by himself’ According to Aristotle he ignores the distinction between goods of lowest completeness and goods of intermediate completeness because this distinction is considered irrelevant to hispresent purpose. Under completeness moral action is also said to be a intermediate completeness. An alternative to contemplation is happiness and is an unwelcome conclusion for an inclusivist. Aristotle abandons the I 7 peculiarity and he denies that contemplation is peculiar to humans when he observes that God......

...ZESPRI
CRITERIA AND OPTIONS + RECOMMENDATIONS
DECISION CRITERIA
The decision criterion for Zespri is how it can expand its presence on a global scale, and what other applications for the Kiwifruit there can be. With Zespri’s presence as marketing firm that markets premium kiwifruits that have been subject to several quality standards to ensure consumer’s satisfaction; its product line is limited to only four products. Its expansion can be derived by targeting and engaging in emerging markets like Iran, building its presence through was such as engaging in community outreach, as well as strategic partnerships in different markets in different countries.
The decision is based on the fact that there are many uses and benefits of the kiwifruit, and it has the potential and rewards that appeal to certain markets that it does not have a presence in.
One potential for expansion in Canada and the United States and markets that have not yet been touched in Europe, and in emerging markets like India and Indonesia is through their juice and smoothie markets, and enhanced flavor water with Kiwifruit flavor. The juice and Smoothie Bars industry has been steadily growing as a relatively new niche industry yielding revenues of $2.4 billion in the American market(http://planetsmoothiefranchise.com/learn-planet-smoothie/big-smoothie-industry/); it still shows capacity to grow.

...This document discusses covers the implementation of a network that considers the various aspects of the company. The aim is to have a network that is comprehensive such that the organization can achieve the expected benefits from such an investment. The project addresses the needs of an organization that has different office locations. This means that different LANs need to be developed. The project discusses the cabling specifications, wide area network design; network protocols; network remote access; network business applications; and network security.
For the cabling specifications, the physical position of the various systems and offices are considered. Because of the need for interconnection among computers in different offices, the cables specified address the need for protection against electromagnetic interference. The design of the local area network addresses the need for interconnectivity among all computers at each of the locations of the organization. The ring topology allows for centralization of various computers, while ensuring fast data transfer throughout the network. The design of the wide area network, on the other hand, allows for secure interconnectivity among the organization’s different locations and also allows for access to the internet. The network protocols considered for the network are: (a) TCP/IP; (b) POP and SMTP; (c) HTTP; and (d) FTP. Bluetooth is considered for local connectivity of some devices.

Criteria – Search for a new President
“Businesses now are going global at a faster pace than they did 10 years back; tighter integration of technology and business, in fact dependency of businesses on technology is making businesses more complex and challenging” (Blagg D. & Young S. “What Makes A Good leader” 2001. Understanding this, searching for a new President for a globalized corporation should be organized, specific, and purposeful and the criteria being used is important to follow in order to find the best candidate for the job. Everyone is unique, and all of mankind does also have more in common than not. There are physical commonalities that we all share like our anatomy, and common psychological traits, such as the need for shelter, security, social acceptance, sense of self and self-worth. Of course these needs can vary from one person to another, some needing more or less social acceptance. Ultimately, we have more in common than we have in differences. Keeping this in mind the criteria I will use is described in the following paragraphs.
“When discussing business leadership, the distinction between good management and good leadership is often made. Managers are thought to be the budgeters, the organizers,......
